Cop who Helped Murder George Floyd Released from Prison - Completed Light Sentence Granted by White Liberal Judge pursuant to the 'White Cop Can Murder a NGHR' Exception to the Sentencing Guidelines

WHAT IS COLLECTIVE WHITE POWER? WHITE JUDGE HOOKS UP WHITE COP WHO MURDERED BLACK MAN IN PUBLIC AND ON VIDEO FOR THE WORLD TO SEE, SUPPORTS 'HIS RIGHT' TO ACT GENOCIDALLY AGAINST BLACKS.

From [HERE] Minneapolis police officer Thomas Lane has been released from prison two years after he was convicted in the 2020 death of George Floyd

Lane was one of four officers to be convicted in Floyd’s death which led to nationwide racial justice protests. 

The 41-year-old was found guilty in 2022 of violating Floyd’s civil rights. The 46-year-old Black man was handcuffed and restrained as he lay on his stomach for more than nine minutes, telling officers that he couldn’t breathe. 

Lane was only on his fourth day as an officer, CNN noted, and he held down Floyd’s legs as he was arrested. Another officer, Derek Chauvin, pushed his knee into Floyd’s neck while Officer Alexander Kueng held down Floyd’s upper body. Fellow officer Tou Thao kept back witnesses as they grew increasingly upset at the scene. 

Lane asked twice if they should reposition Floyd and gave Floyd CPR after paramedics had placed him in an ambulance. However, prosecutors said he didn’t do enough to help the 46-year-old, according to The Minnesota Star Tribune. 

In July 2022, Lane was sentenced to two and a half years in federal prison. He was subsequently sentenced to three years in prison on the state level later that same year after pleading guilty to aiding and abetting second-degree manslaughter. 

That came after he faced the charge of aiding and abetting second-degree unintentional murder, but the charge was dismissed as part of the plea agreement. 

Prosecutors and defense lawyers recommended a 36-month sentence, but a lighter sentence was imposed.

Lane served his sentences concurrently at the Englewood prison in Colorado. The low-security prison has about 1,000 inmates. He’s the first of the four officers to be released. 

“He has a two-year term of supervision imposed through the District of Minnesota,” a spokesperson for the Federal Bureau of Prisons told CNN. 

Lane finished his federal sentence in June and stayed in detention to finish his state sentence. He left prison on Tuesday morning. 

The four officers were all convicted on both federal and state charges in the death of Floyd. 

In April 2021, Chauvin was found guilty on the state charges of second-degree unintentional murder, third-degree murder, and second-degree manslaughter. He was sentenced to 22 and half years behind bars. In November last year, the Supreme Court rejected Chauvin’s appeal of the sentence by white liberal judge, Judge Peter Cahill. [MORE]

Chauvin subsequently pleaded guilty to charges of violating Floyd’s civil rights on the federal level. He was sentenced to 21 years to be served concurrently with his state sentence.
